This book presents a significant advancement in the theory and practice of knowledge engineering, the discipline concerned with the development of intelligent agents that use knowledge and reasoning to perform problem solving and decision-making tasks. It covers the main stages in the development of a knowledge-based agent: understanding the application domain, modeling problem solving in that domain, developing the ontology, learning the reasoning rules, and testing the agent. The book focuses on a special class of agents: cognitive assistants for evidence-based reasoning that learn complex problem-solving expertise directly from human experts, support experts, and nonexperts in problem solving and decision making, and teach their problem-solving expertise to students. A powerful learning agent shell, Disciple-EBR, is included with the book, enabling students, practitioners, and researchers to develop cognitive assistants rapidly in a wide variety of domains that require evidence-base

「清」是中國最迷人、落差最大、但也最容易被誤解的朝代清是一個相當迷人的朝代，但也是從興盛到衰亡，落差最大的朝代。它曾創下中國有史以來少見的百年盛世，其以外來民族之姿，在開國初時所展現氣度與智慧，可與漢、唐相媲美。但它在晚年時卻面臨到中國其他朝代從來沒有遇過的挑戰—遠從歐洲到來的國家侵略，這些國家自工業革命後國力迅速壯大，已非閉關自守的清朝所能應對。清朝雖也在這漸進的衰落過程中不斷掙扎，

認識台灣歷史軌跡、重新發掘精彩風貌台灣從史前時代就開始有人類活動的蹤跡，但十六世紀前的台灣就如同一個位居東亞海上的世外桃源，維持孤立。十七世紀，歐洲人發現新航路後，台灣因此成為歐亞海路貿易的往來據點。清朝時，大批漢人移民來台，並將中國傳統社會與文化元素移植到台灣，然而台灣卻孕育出一個與原鄉不同、具有本地特性的社會。到了十九世紀末，西方列強大舉向東亞擴張，台灣也在中日甲午戰爭後割讓給日本，在日治時代

文化研究是在做什麼呢？簡單來說，文化就是潛藏在我們日常生活中被我們習以為常的小事情，例如拿筷子吃飯等，而文化研究就是將文化視為社會的症狀或徵兆，對其提出質疑，發掘現象，並注意現象背後的成因、影響以至權力關係和操作等問題，還原文化社會的真實面目並加以反省的一門學科。本書以簡明清晰的概念、深入淺出的圖解，將這門匯聚了新興觀點的學科有系統而完整地介紹給讀者：從主要研究議題，諸如意識型態、知識與權力的關係
